MacMillan Publishing Company
, 1994
I wish there were more good houseplant books.
This is an excellent book! This book isn't for the person who wants a short, general discription of the comon houseplant. This book has about 40 plant families. It give the history, growth habits, growing instructions that are far beyond the general information found ...

The Ways of Flowers
Tovah Martin

The Ways of Flowers is a tribute to the joy these exquisite objects bring to us every day of our lives - from a clutch of saucy daffodils in the front hall to a trio of creamy gardenias on a party dress to a sprig of ambrosial lily of the valley entwined in a young girl's hair.
